There are few things Innsbruck, Austria has going for it: it’s an internationally recognized home for killer skiing and winter sports, beautiful old world architecture, lots of potent beer and even more fattening food. Bringing up the rear of the “trambahn” are local (with some added Dutch flavour) clown kings of crossover, Insanity Alert. The quartet has been a beer-drinkin’, skateboardin’, mosh-pittin’ entity that worships in the funhouse built by Municipal Waste, D.R.I. and S.O.D. since 2011 and next week sees the release of their second full-length, Moshburger (produced by Holy Moses’ Andy Classen and mastered by Toxic Holocaust’s Joel Grind). Beholden as they are to crossover/thrash basics, expect the expected in terms of sound, style and what they’re saying in songs like “The Times are A-Thrasin’,” “Wake and Bake,” “March of the Mentally Ill” and “Metal Punx Never Die!”

Below, we present the band’s newest video ("Why is David Guetta Still Alive"), a new song (the aforementioned “The Times are A-Thrashin’”) and a host of their prolific visual offerings from the past couple of years. As well, a few rounds of the game of “Or/Or” with vocalist Kevin “Heavy Kevvy” Stout. Our European readers will note the tour dates for a run with Dust Bolt that commences next week, so come on out and join the party. Bring your own lobster hands and Kraft Dinner.
